Know Yourself in the Dragon World

Chapter 657: Another Split of the Secret Party (1)

Chen Yan said in a high-sounding manner: "Of course it is to slay dragons, what else? As for why we withdraw our investment, it is very simple. Principal Beowulf and nine other families, including the Chen family, believe that Kassel Academy no longer has the ability to fight against dragons. Relying on the academy to deal with dragons is a joke. Our investment has not cultivated enough elites."

"Oh!" Beowulf nodded, "You mean you want to unite and slay the dragon yourselves, right?"

"This matter was mentioned a long time ago." Chen Yan said.

"I am old and have a bad memory, don't you all think so?" Beowulf sneered.

Chen Yan smiled politely: "Principal Beowulf, when you get older, you should give more opportunities to young people. Principal Ange once said that the world will belong to the young sooner or later, and the mission should also be handed over to the young."

"Yes, Principal Beowulf, you don't see this point as clearly as Principal Angers." said Charlotte Gottingen, the head of the Gottingen family.

A little girl of sixteen or seventeen years old, because the previous head of the family was assassinated and the murderer has not been found yet, she, as a daughter, has to take over her father's responsibilities.

A similar play to Elizabeth's, but without Elizabeth's abilities.

Charlotte is more like a puppet that was pushed out. Gao Yangen's family and Chen's family share the same stance.

"My father got into trouble and asked for help from the academy, and the academy only sent a few people over. Principal Beowulf, the Gao Yangen family has always provided a lot of funding to the academy, right? Many family members died in missions against dragons. We have paid so much for the academy that there is a shortage of manpower in the family, and when we need the academy's help, the academy just pretends to help? Ask yourself, is this reasonable?" Charlotte asked.

Beowulf answered seriously: "Little girl, the specialist assigned to your family is the best configuration that the executive department can provide. What else are you dissatisfied with? The heads of three families were assassinated, the heads of two families died unexpectedly, and Lot Chen died. Do you think the academy has enough manpower? Since I took office, you have been gradually pulling your family members back from the academy. Now there are still a few first-generation species outside that have not been resolved, and the wanted guys have not been caught yet."

Beowulf's anger had reached its peak, but he suppressed it by force. "It would be fine if you didn't help, but what do you mean by trying to trip me up?"

Poor Beowulf, he didn't understand politics and thought that iron-blooded means could solve everything.

As a result, the various families joined forces to boil the frog in warm water.

From the initial closure of the school to compromise a small number of places to the families, more and more people were brought back to the families later.

Beowulf is no match for this group of people on the political battlefield. If they were not afraid that Beowulf would really overturn the table, I am afraid that all the more outstanding students without families in the academy would have been divided up, not just limited to the children of families.

"Principal Beowulf, what you said is a bit unreasonable." Chen Yan retorted: "Each family has made great efforts in the pursuit of Lu Mingfei and in the battle against Loki. Can't you see our sacrifice? What did you mean by initially blindly dispatching those family members and retaining the strength of the academy? Can't we see it? If we don't hurry to draw out our own elites, I'm afraid that the hopes of each family will be used up by you, right?"

"The Patriarch of the Chen family is right." Charlotte said.

"That's right. The elites of each family have already lost a lot because of Lu Mingfei and Loki's incident."

"Principal Beowulf, we did not create the current situation, and it is not your actions that force us to protect ourselves."

More and more family heads began to support Chen Yan's statement.

Beowulf dug his own grave just to weaken the power of each family and preserve the strength of the academy.

It turns out that Beowulf really doesn't know how to play political games and overestimates his own appeal.

In terms of moral integrity, he was more respected than Ange before he became the principal.

But when it comes to being a hooligan, he is no match for Angers. To be a politician, one must learn to be a hooligan.

It can be said that the current situation of the academy is also due to Angers. He has been a gangster for too long and there are indeed problems in the distribution of interests.

He has been using rogue methods to drag various families, taking money to slay dragons. Some families are happy to do so, while some families care more about the return.

If there is too much flour, add water; if there is too much water, add flour, and repeat this cycle over and over again. When it falls into Beowulf's hands, he operates it casually and the thunder explodes.

"Principal Beowulf." Chen Yan suddenly changed the subject: "You are a veteran of the secret party, and we respect you. You should not be sitting in this position. The contributions of the academy are indeed obvious to all, but the academy also has problems everywhere."

"Hahahaha, good, very good." Beowulf sneered: "It seems that you guys are determined to cause division, right?"

"No, Principal Beowulf." Chen Yan said calmly: "It is you who caused the division. Our demands are very clear, to abolish the college system and for the secret party to return to the family alliance system. It is because you are unwilling to accept it and want to go to the end of a dead end that we have no choice but to unite on our own."

"You are turning history backwards," Beowulf said.

"Oh?" Chen Yan looked at the elders of other families and asked, "Dear elders, I heard that when Principal Ange wanted to establish the academy, the person who was most opposed in the secret party was Beowulf, right?"

"Yes."

"Beowulf, what makes you insist on the existence of the academy?"

Those same old things threw questions at Beowulf.

Everyone knows that Beowulf and Ange are at odds with each other. Beowulf used to be a supporter of the family union system, and his current actions are indeed hard to understand.

Everyone thought there was only one possibility, and Chen Yan pointed out this possibility: "Principal Beowulf, are you protecting the interests of the academy or the interests of the four old families? I heard that you went to Europe a few days ago and met with the heads of the other three old families."

Cadmus, St. George, Sigurd and Beowulf, these four families exist as the elders of the secret party, the four old dragon-slaying families.

The four major families have declined with the development of the times, and what remains is only prestige and discourse power. Prestige and discourse power without the support of strength are just empty shells, and if others do not recognize them, they are equivalent to nothing.

"Are you monitoring me?" Beowulf looked around.

All the families are watching the show, including the Laurent family who lost Elizabeth.

He was facing an entire conference room of people alone. His blood-golden eyes represented the power of the dragon-blooded ones, but they were weak here.

"Don't get excited, Principal Beowulf." Chen Yan said, "The four old families want to take over the academy's property. Their appetite is too big. The elderly have poor digestion ability. Eating too much can easily harm their bodies."
